Try @JsonIdentityInfo annotation as given in this example. More details here http://wiki.fasterxml.com/JacksonFeatureObjectIdentity

@JsonIdentityInfo(generator=ObjectIdGenerators.IntSequenceGenerator.class, property="@id")
public class Identifiable
{
    public int value;

    public Identifiable next;
}
